This was a fun interview, and @ianwilloughby.bsky.social had serious questions about my Czech shoegaze book. We were trying to figure out why shoegaze symbolised the rupture after the 1989 revolution, and the year zero was soundtracked by massive guitar distortion.

Where were you in 1984?
In our latest Rewind, Chal Ravens tells the story of Art of Noise's "Moments in Love."
Few tracks have been as widely sampled as this fluttering '80s classic.
Its impact still ripples today—and four notes from a Fairlight CMI synth was all it took.

Blunt question: How far does Zuck have to go until you delete your Insta / FB account? I understand how these might be embedded in some aspects of your social life or information feeds, I was in the same position. But keeping the accounts will be soon get as unbearable as keeping Twitter.
"In recent weeks, in one of Zuckerberg’s first specific asks since Trump took office, Meta executives have pressed U.S. trade officials to fight against an expected European Union fine and cease-and-desist order."

Dumb and Dumber 4: Trump staff stepping in
In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.
